Love from Gangsters

Chapter 19

Y/n's POV

I pushed past my brother after making a smart remark. He had no right, he acts like hes my father. I love my brother, I didn't think I would be able to see him again after he got sick. We walked to my fathers office and I knocked.

"Come in" he said. I opened the door and he looked at Thomas and I locking arms. "Hi, father," I said smiling. "Thomas, let me have a word with my daughter," he said sitting his glass down. Thomas nodded and I walked in, my father sat down in his chair and waited for me to sit as well. I stayed standing up and then saw him gesture me to sit down. I knew not to make my father tell me twice, he loved me but today was not the day to test him.

"You had no right to act out today Y/n," he said leaning back in his chair.

"You had no right to blind side me and keep this a secret." I yelled. I couldn't contain my temper. I just wanted to tear his office apart, I wanted to scream at him, hit him, show him how much pain I was in.

"Y/n, I'm sorry dear. I truly am I didn't want to keep it from you." He said, looking at me like I was a ghost.

"I know father, but I'm leaving tomorrow," I said reaching for his hand.

"I understand, Y/n. How long will you be gone?" He asked, grabbing my hand.

"I don't know." I said looking at him with a soft smile. I knew my father was sad and that he lost someone as well. He lost his soulmate.

"Will you send in Thomas." he said, standing up pouring another drink.

I shook my head and opened the door. I walked over to Thomas who was looking out the window. "He wants to talk to you," I said, putting my hand on his back. He turned around and grabbed a cigarette out of his pocket. He put it in between his lips and walked towards the door.

Thomas's POV

I felt Y/n touch my back and it gave me shivers. I could hear the tremble in her voice when she told me her father wanted to speak to me. I didn't even say anything to her, I grabbed a cig and walked towards the room.

"Thomas Shelby, my new partner. How has your stay been?" He asked, handing me a glass and pouring me a drink.

"Good, under the unfourtnate circumstances," I said shutting the door and walking over to his desk.

"I need you to promise me one more thing before you leave." He said, taking a sip of his drink. I didn't say anything just shook my head. "I need you to reject her." He said. I looked at him confused.

"I don't know what you're talking about," I said.

"I think you do Mr. Shelby." He said, sitting his drink down. "You didn't just follow my daughter after her outburst because were partners." He said. "I need you to stop whatever is going on, my daughter is a very complicated girl, she is an innocent angel and I need her to stay that way," he said looking at me for an agreement.

"I understand Mr. Williams." I said sitting my drink down. "Are we done here?" I asked standing up putting my hand out.

"I believe so, I had one of the maids set up a room for you. You can stay here tonight since we are friends now." He said shaking my hand. "Y/n will show you your room, she will also be going back to Small Heath with you. I need you to reject her on your way back." He said letting my hand go.
